Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-016
2005-01-26
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : enscript
Version : 1.6.1 =20
Release : 28.0.2 =20
Summary : A plain ASCII to PostScript converter.
Description :
GNU enscript is a free replacement for Adobe's Enscript
program. Enscript converts ASCII files to PostScript(TM) and spools
generated PostScript output to the specified printer or saves it to a
file. Enscript can be extended to handle different output media and
includes many options for customizing printouts.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Erik Sj=F6lund has discovered several security relevant problems in
enscript, a program to converts ASCII text to Postscript and other
formats. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
the following vulnerabilities:
CAN-2004-1184
Unsanitised input can caues the execution of arbitrary commands
via EPSF pipe support. This has been disabled, also upstream.
CAN-2004-1185
Due to missing sanitising of filenames it is possible that a
specially crafted filename can cause arbitrary commands to be
executed.
CAN-2004-1186
Multiple buffer overflows can cause the program to crash.
